Bob Arum: Cotto-Paquiao almost sold out

Cool, there's some idiot on another thread saying it's not selling because you can find tickets on ticket brokers which is bullshit because that's a secondary market.

it does 1 million not 1.5 I agree 1.5 would be difficult to make, but it could very well do 1 million or a little above that.

but.....if this fight would've gotten media coverage (in ESPN and in other channels) then it would probably do more than 1 million PPV buys, but since both are NON-AMERICAN athletes the American media doesn't care, it won't surpass 900K, I hope i'm wrong but that's how i see it.

He'll have to fight Mayweather if Arum wants the PPV #'s to exceed 1 million.

I think it does over a million.

the question is..pbf will get more with cotto than this..but why he's not doing it...

Bob Arum: "You can say all tickets already sold out, because those who remain are a few of the most expensive and we know that soon they will sell. There will also be 20,000 tickets available to watch the fight on closed circuit in Las Vegas, we have already sold 2,000 of those in a week. As for the pay per view, I would be very happy if we reach the 1.5 million orders. We are looking to reach that figure." http://www.elnuevodia.com/notieneunfavorito...-626605.html I would love to see that, but unfortunately it's not going to happen.

good luck !! :fing02: I have 50K that this card will do better numbers than numero uno!!!
